The new footage seems to show George Floyd in a hard struggle with police while in a patrol car before he died after being clamped with his knees to his neck for almost nine minutes.

Clips – posted on saturday by controversial activist Shaun King – shows a Minneapolis officer leaning against the rear left passenger door, apparently struggling with Floyd after his arrest for trying to use a fake $ 20 bill.

Derek Chauvin – the officer charged with murder after pinching his neck when Floyd sobbed, “I can’t breathe” – was seen running to the right side of the car when the Warning Day clip ended.

It was the place where Floyd, 46, was finally pinned to the ground in a now-viral clip that sparked protests across America.

“All united. The police are in the car beating the s-t George Floyd,” King insisted.

“One stood guard, while the other attacked him.”

The four Minneapolis officers were fired. Chauvin – who has been involved in three police shootings in 19 years of work – was arrested and charged with third-degree murder and second-degree murder.

The Floyd family said in a statement with their lawyer, Ben Crump, that they “expected first-degree murder charges.”

“We want first-degree murder charges. And we want to see other officers arrested, “said the statement.
